Thank you Lisa! Thank you Tanner!

Lisa took my two teens out for a trail ride today, and the whole experience was fantastic from start to finish. Amber and Ruth were speedy and courteous getting us booked ahead, and they communicated really well about what to expect and so forth. The ranch was gorgeous, friendly and welcoming. Lisa spent the perfect amount of time with my kiddos before they hit the trail, going over how to steer the horses, what to do in various situations, etc. She was just awesome. I had 100% confidence in her to take my teens out for their ride. Thank you to horses Tanner and Clyde. What a wonderful time. Can't say enough good things.

Photo op during the ride

We had a fantastic experience with VS Equine! On Wed. 8/3 we took two of our granddaughters (ages 7 & 9) on a trail ride. Lisa and John were terrific guides and we all felt comfortable and prepared. The whole adventure felt professional, safe, and aimed toward fun! Lisa took lots of photos of us on the trail which we are enjoying. Highly recommend!

VS Equine is the perfect place to enjoy horses and the great outdoors! My 8-year old daughter was thrilled to have such a positive experience for her first time horseback-riding. She and my husband went on a 1- hour guided tour on a trail near the stables led by two awesome guides (Jordan & Katie). Everything about the experience was seamless: booking over the phone with Ruth, finding the place, getting all set up & learning the ropes, etc. I highly recommend this place for all ages and abilities. Happy trails!

Where we parked

We just did a horseback riding excursion with them to Faery Falls! It was so beautiful and private. Ruth was so accommodating, friendly, and informative. She, Julie, and Christie were our guides and they made us all feel comfortable and safe on the horses; even for our kids' first time. We got to ride Skip, Paisley, Happy and Wrangler!We started at their site to sign paperwork and get fitted for helmets while they saddled them up. We followed the horse trailer to the trail head and parked in shade. The trail itself was beautiful; 90% shaded the whole way amongst the trees and bonus that it ended with the falls. We got lucky because we were the only ones there, like our own private waterfall. They offered their kennel to leave our dog there or since it was shaded we were able to leave him where we parked. I highly recommend!!!

See all

I spent the best summer of my life working as a wrangler/horse trainer at Coffee Creek Ranch and…read morewas also lucky enough to come back as a paying guest twice since! It is one of the only authentic guest ranches on the West Coast (I have worked at others since that claimed 5 stars and never once had as much fun as I did at CCR). The trails and mountains are beautiful, the horses well behaved and healthy, the food is AMAZING, and the cabins are adorable! I was even able to be there recently for the Thanksgiving holiday to reunite with or meet just about every member of the Hartman family! It was pretty incredible to get to enjoy the ranch and the gorgeous Trinity Alps in the winter for the first time too. I cannot even believe some of these scathing reviews I just read! I can understand frustration if you feel like your expectations weren't met in a situation where you paid money, but this particular experience was such an isolated one that it simply doesn't speak for the ranch/accommodations/etc. quality as a whole. Coffee Creek Ranch is a family-owned, family-friendly mountain resort where people go to get away from the chaos of their daily lives and spend a few days (at least) and try out some of the many unique activities offered.It's not a place to travel all the way too if you are going to rush or try to fit too much into only a few hours. In the entire time I worked there I don't remember seeing one guests leave dissatisfied - except perhaps if they didn't catch a fish, or over-slept for the Breakfast Ride, or ran out of time to do karaoke on their last night or something like that! I just reached out to Ruth again last week to schedule a romantic weekend getaway for myself and my boyfriend in May and I absolutely can't wait!!

I still remember our breakfast rides in the beautiful surroundings. On a whim, I googled Coffee Creek Ranch and was delighted to see you are still there and delighting guests.

Jack Trout Fly Fishing Guide

Just got back from an incredible fishing trip with guide Jack Trout on the Upper Sacramento River,…read moreand I can't say enough good things about the experience. I brought my 8-year-old son Brandon along for his first real fly fishing adventure, and Jack made it a day we'll both remember forever. From the moment we hit the water, Jack was patient, knowledgeable, and great with my son. The float down the river was absolutely stunning, and the fishing action was steady throughout the day. Jack knew exactly where to go, and we hooked into some beautiful rainbows... 12 strikes and 9 landed, some north of 18 inches. Jack grilled up a hot ribeye steak lunch riverside--seriously next level. It felt more like a gourmet adventure than a fishing trip at times. Spotting wildlife along the river including deer and a bald eagle as we tackled the mild rapids was awesome! I've fished this river from the banks for years, but the float trip really gets you to locations that you can't otherwise access. If you're looking for an experienced, fun, and family-friendly guide on the Upper Sac, Jack Trout is your guy. We'll be back for sure.

Had a great day fishing with Jack Trout. We fished some very creative spots I would've never…read moreconsidered . We went to the upper McCloud and the Upper Sac. I hooked up on four species of trout: Brook, Rainbow, McCloud River Redband and the most notable a Shasta Leopard trout which I know very little about. Thanks Jack!

We were anxious about how…read morethe week would go for our family of 4 with two teenagers, but this dissipated within seconds of arrival. There is a depth and breadth of expertise and care in how it is run that makes this a very special experience. The horses are loved, well-trained and contented, the staff are all adorable, the food glorious. We were fully occupied from morning until night, coasting from one unforgettable and enriching experience to the next. The ranch itself is stunning, and set in a spectacular landscape. Each activity was of the highest quality and it felt enormously luxurious to be in such capable hands throughout. It was a stretch for us financially but absolutely some of the best money we have ever spent

From the charmingly appointed rustic cabins to the farm to table exceptional homemade meals and…read moredeserts, this ranch exceeded any expectations I might have had. All the activities are scheduled so carefully that I was able to participate in everything I wanted to do. Their horses are very well cared for, well behaved and trained. No swaybacked trail nags here! The up to date whitewater rafts and staff were all very knowledgeable and safety oriented. We had some GREAT rapids rides!! The shooting involved expert SAFE instruction and a revolving set of varied experiences with different weapons. The children in attendance had the time of their lives as did this 74 year old horsewoman! The ranch is self sufficient ( off the grid) and well off the beaten path. A real community developed amongst the guests under the guidance and warm personalities of Heidi and Doug. The 30 plus years of love and devotion to the upkeep of the natural beauty of their ranch showed in the gardens and plantings of flowers and trees in abundance. Even the gaggle of teenaged sisters spent less time in the lodge (the only WiFi) than one would have imagined! A fun and deeply relaxing time in nature was had by all. I will definitely be back again! Happy Trails!

Everything just far exceeded our expectations. So nice to arrive to a very nicely air conditioned cabin and be able to return to it after sweaty hikes!

The pool is beautiful and also very clean. Thank you all for making our stay so worry free and comfortable. I will give everyone I know who likes this kind of experience your website.

We only stayed for two nights but in the short visit we squeezed in kayaks on the lake, floating down the river, fishing and a short hike. The scenery if absolutely beautiful and the cabin was clean and had all the amenities a family could need...which is nice for anyone wanting the "outdoor experience" without actually sleeping in a hotel tent/outdoors:) We took two trips this summer, one to Hawai'i and second here. When we asked our boys what their favorite part of summer break was they said "lakeview terrace"!
